The pain!

[andrewducker]

One of the things I had on my nwe to-do list was "sort hair". The problem with my hair is that it tangles incredibly easily. This, combined with a scalp that gets sore very easily, means that if I get a knot in my hair it's very painful to get out. Which tends to lead to postponement of the disentanglement. Which means that it'll knot further, making it more painful, so I leave it for longer.

So I spent two hours getting most of it out on Saturday, before going out. This got it down to an invisible level. Then an hour yesterday. And today, it's taken about 3 hours of intermittent untangling, tugging and pulling to get the last of it out.

Ow. Ow. Ow.

Mustn't do that again.

I thought that was my hair! Sheesh. Mine's about as thick as possible, but also baby fine. (Try finding shampoo & conditioner specifically for that combo!) Actually, though, mine's getting a bit of a wave to it. Last time I got it cut (right before the perm), it actually wanted to "flip" a bit at the ends. Odd.
